Plog is a portable, header-only C++ logging library in about 1000 lines of code. It offers multiple formatters (txt, CSV) and appenders (rolling file, console, Android, Windows Event Log) with simple initialization and extensibility.

Use cases

  • add logging to a C++ application
  • header-only logging library with no dependencies
  • rolling log files in C++
  • log to console and file simultaneously in C++
  • cross-platform C++ logger for Windows Linux and Android
  • lightweight logging for embedded Arduino projects

When to choose

  • you want a small, dependency-free, header-only C++ logging solution
  • you need cross-platform logging including mobile and embedded targets
  • you want extensible appenders and formatters with minimal setup

When to avoid

  • you need async or high-performance structured logging at scale
  • your project already standardizes on a larger framework like spdlog or Boost.Log
